Emma Roberts has joined Neve Campbell, Courtney Cox-Arquette, and David Arquette in Wes Craven’s Scream 4. Roberts is rumored to be portraying Campbell’s high school aged cousin in the horror flick, and the central character in the new film. From the above picture, I could definitely see a family resemblance.
While this is the first official casting, other rumored casting has included Lake Bell as a Wosoboro cop, Hayden Panettiere as a film geek, and Ashley Greene and Rory Culkin in unknown roles. We have no real confirmation if any of these will actually pan out. Personally, I hope that Hayden Panettiere is no where near this film. Especially not in a Randy-like role.
Am I the only one that wants to see Patrick Dempsey’s Detective Mark Kincaid and Heather Matarazzo’s Martha Meeks return? Having a detective in the mix would help as the murder mystery unfolds, and if we can’t have Randy, than his kid sister is the next best thing.
I’m sure we’ll be hearing a lot more casting news in the near future as the film starts lensing in June in Michigan. Kevin Williamson penned the script.

It would be cool to see Patrick Dempsey’s Detective Mark Kincaid and Heather Matarazzo’s Martha Meeks return. Heather’s a little old to play a high school student. Maybe she coulde be a teacher or counselor.
Hayden Panettiere and Rory Culkin are both official cast members according to Wes Cravens tweet today.

Well, Culkin is cool at least. I guess we can hope that Hayden sees a bloody death early in the flick. I just hope that she isn’t too annoying.
I sooo want Patrick and Heather in the next movie. I would hope that Sidney and the Detective are still a couple in the fourth. The fourth movie needs a dork movie goer which is apparently Hayden’s character’s purpose. No offense to Hayden but I don’t see her as being able to pull it off. We need Randy’s dork sister to replace him in a way. Patrick and Heather don’t have to survive the fourth movie but they should atleast make an appearance. If they don’t they sure as hell need to explain their character’s absence.
Scream 4 gets a trailer! Chick here to view it.
